A couple does came up to the feeder while my brother was checking the camera card.

during the 2011 drought, I had two young bucks that would bed right by the feeder waiting for it to go off twice a day. I would spook them on the way in to my feeder and they would run about 40 yards and stand and wait for it to go off while I climbed in my stand LOL. I should have done more for them looking back they didn't look that bad but I would guess they were starving. Every plant was dead, nothing that year was green.

This is probably the mama doe right here, too. She came up to the cabin down on the ranch about six weeks ago when we were down there. I don't know what attracted her. There's no corn or anything there were she is standing and eating.
That is the frame of an old trailer house that burned up, by the way.

They're like that at my place when the food gets scarce. I had a video last year where I was walking up and talking to a doe and finally had to shoe her off because she was standing over a piece of the varmint cage that had fallen off my feeder that I wanted to fix. She looked nervous as I got progressively closer, but then she'd remember there was corn and go right back to eating.
